Zimbabwe National Anthem Lyrics

Zimbabwe

Blessed be the Land of Zimbabwe

English:

O lift high the banner, the flag of Zimbabwe

The symbol of freedom proclaiming victory;

We praise our heros' sacrifice,

And vow to keep our land from foes;

And may the Almighty protect and bless our land.


O lovely Zimbabwe, so wondrously adorned

With mountains, and rivers cascading, flowing free;

May rain abound, and fertile fields;

May we be fed, our labour blessed;

And may the Almighty protect and bless our land.


O God, we beseech Thee to bless our native land;

The land of our fathers bestowed upon us all;

From Zambezi to Limpopo

May leaders be exemplary;

And may the Almighty protect and bless our land.

Simudzai mureza wedu weZimbabwe

Yakazvarwa nomoto wechimurenga;

Neropa zhinji ramagamba

Tiidzivirire kumhandu dzose;

Ngaikomborerwe nyika yeZimbabwe.


Tarisai Zimbabwe nyika yakashongedzwa

Namakomo, nehova, zvinoyevedza

Mvura ngainaye, minda ipe mbesa

Vashandi vatuswe, ruzhinji rugutswe;

Ngaikomborerwe nyika yeZimbabwe.


Mwari ropafadzai nyika yeZimbabwe

Nyika yamadzitateguru edu tose;

Kubva Zambezi kusvika Limpopo,

Navatungamiri vave nenduramo;

Ngaikomborerwe nyika yeZimbabwe.

Eyazalwa yimpi yenkululeko;

Legaz' elinengi lamaqhawe ethu

Silivikele ezithan izonke;

Kusuk' eZambezi kusiy' eLimpopo

Abakhokheli babe lobuqotho;

Kalibusisiwe ilizwe leZimbabwe.
